1. Opta Facts
This is a repeat of the 2013 Super Rugby final, a game the Chiefs won 27-22.
Both of these sides conceded exactly 378 points this season, an average of 23.6 per game.
Tawera Kerr-Barlow (24) and Tim Nani-Williams (22) ended the regular season as the
fourth and equal-fifth top offloaders in the competition, respectively.
Nic White produced 14 try assists in the regular rounds, at least four more than any other
player.
These two sides are statistically the worst at goal-kicking this season. The Brumbies have
landed 63% of their shots at goal, while the Chiefs have been successful with 69% of their
attempts.
Aaron Cruden has kicked at 68% whilst Nic White has kicked at 74%. Christian Lealiifano’s
rate of 49% (21/43) is the worst of any of the 24 players to attempt 20+ kicks at goal this
season.
The Chiefs’ tackling success rate is a Super Rugby-high 88% this season. Opponents of
the Brumbies have tackled with the same success rate; every other side has forced a lower
success rate from their opponents.
The Brumbies have the worst scrum success rate (76%) in the competition this season.
However, opponents of the Chiefs win a higher percentage of their scrums (92%) than
against any other side.
The Canberra side have averaged the fewest turnovers won (5.8) this season, though their
opponents win fewer turnovers (6.2) than against any other side.
The Chiefs have conceded more penalties/free-kicks than any other side this term,
averaging 13.1 per 80 minutes. They have also been awarded the fewest, an average of
8.8 per match.
The Brumbies are making their second consecutive appearance in the finals after going all
the way to the final in 2013 before losing to the Chiefs. Prior to last season they had not
appeared in the business end of the season since 2004.
The Chiefs are aiming for a third title in a row, only the Crusaders (1998-2000) have ever
won three titles on the bounce.
Only the Waratahs (21) have scored more tries in the final quarter of matches than the
Chiefs (18) this season. The Brumbies have conceded the joint-second most in the same
time frame (19).
The Brumbies have scored 12 opening quarter tries this season, only the Waratahs (14)
have managed more.
The Brumbies’ ruck success rate (96%) is a Super Rugby high figure in 2014.
The Brumbies have scored the most tries (22) from possessions that have originated with a
lineout this year, twice as many as the Chiefs. Indeed, they have scored twice as many (12)
as the Chiefs (6) with possessions that originated from a scrum as well.
Jesse Mogg (1,058) is one of just three players to make 1,000+ metres over the gainline
this season.
